#OneNETnewsInvestigates: Tropical Cyclone 'Bebinca' allegedly plagiarized Filipino rice cake name of 'Bibingka', where bakers triggering to sue State Weather Bureau in the Philippines [EXCLUSIVE]
Originally published on September 21st, 2024 due to Technical Issues.
SANTA ANA, CAGAYAN VALLEY -- Tropical Cyclone 'Bebinca', known locally as 'Ferdie' had been recently stirred controversy beyond its weather impact in an unforeseen rainy event. Filipino bakers are enraged over the alleged plagiarism of the international name 'Bebinca', which ironically, the cyclone draws its name after the Filipino rice cake 'Bibingka'. We dig into the utterly ridiculous beginnings of the cyclone and the rice cake, considering what this naming issue might lead to this controversy, as our undercover first warning weather investigation team at OneNETnews reveals something shocked so you don't really have to.
It was previously formed on Monday (September 9, 2024) and dissipated within a week later on Wednesday (September 18th), this said year. It reached peak intensity with winds of 140 kilometers per hour (kph) and caused significant damage in Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Philippines, Ryukyu Islands in Japan and Eastern China. The cyclone was named 'Bebinca' by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) before entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) and being renamed 'Ferdie' by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical & Astronomical Services Administration (PAG-ASA).
'Bibingka' is one of the traditional Filipino rice cakes which is made from glutinous rice, coconut milk and other ingredients, such as butter, cheese and salted duck eggs. It is usually cooked in a clay oven lined with banana leaves that give it that smoky flavor. The name 'Bibingka' is derived from the Malay word 'bingka'. Bibingka is often related to Christmas season in the country.
The naming of TC 'Bebinca' literally unleashed a furious backlash among Filipino bakers. They see the situation as an unjust appropriation of their traditional dessert 'Bibingka' and are outraged over the naming. Some are calling for a nationwide boycott of the state weather bureau and will also file cases against the latter, saying that the actions of the bureau have been culturally insensitive to the native land.
A family baker, who is being involved in making 'Bibingka' for decades, and wants to keep their identity private and stated via text message (SMS): "It's more than just a name; it's about valuing our culture and heritage. We take great pride in our traditional foods, and it's really disappointing to see them used without proper credit". OneNETnews has learned exclusively that the state weather bureau 'PAG-ASA' refuse to release a public statement regarding this kind of accusation, but sources within the agency suggest that the naming of tropical cyclones is a complex process involving worst international collaboration and historical naming conventions.
Despite this, the story behind TC 'Bebinca' continues to make national headlines, it's a shockerous attention to the cultural consciousness and awareness of this traditional rice cake cuisine. It is more likely, the Filipino bakers may go out of business for the affected areas in the country -- when the plagiarized tropical cyclone name is in effect.
Whether the storm, actually brings about any changes remains in sight, but the controversy has yet to be sparked up, certainly open a dialogue on the intersection between Filipino culture and meteorology.

How to Make the Most of Your Villa Vacation in Goa
Goa is an enchanting destination for travelers seeking sun, sand, and cultural charm. While the region offers various accommodation options, staying in a villa elevates the experience, providing privacy, space, and often a touch of luxury. Here’s how to make the most of your villa vacation in Goa, whether you’re looking to relax, explore, or enjoy family time.
1. Choose the Right Villa Location
Goa is divided into two main parts: North Goa, known for its vibrant nightlife, bustling markets, and famous beaches; and South Goa, celebrated for its serene landscapes, luxurious resorts, and quieter beaches. Decide what kind of atmosphere you’d prefer, and choose a villa in a location that aligns with your holiday goals. North Goa villas are ideal for those looking to party and explore, while South Goa villas offer a peaceful escape amidst natural beauty.
2. Look for Amenities that Suit Your Needs
Villas in Goa vary widely in amenities and facilities. Many villas come with private pools, while others offer beach access, in-house chefs, or large outdoor areas for family gatherings. Consider your group’s needs when selecting amenities—if traveling with kids, a villa with a safe pool and kid-friendly features is ideal. For couples, a secluded villa with ocean views can be incredibly romantic. For food lovers, choosing a villa with a kitchen or chef services can allow for a taste of local Goan cuisine without leaving the comfort of your space.
3. Plan for Outdoor and Beach Activities
Goa’s natural beauty is best enjoyed outdoors, and many villas provide easy access to beaches, watersports, and other activities. Try water sports such as snorkeling, jet-skiing, or parasailing at popular beaches like Calangute and Baga. Some villas even offer exclusive access to private beaches, so you can enjoy the sea without the crowds. Also, explore the region’s trails and hills if you’re up for some scenic hikes. Adding these outdoor activities to your itinerary helps you make the most of your time in Goa and keeps your days exciting.
4. Experience Local Culture and Cuisine
Staying in a villa gives you the freedom to explore Goa’s culture at your own pace. Goa has a rich blend of Portuguese and Indian influences, evident in its architecture, churches, and temples. Visit famous landmarks like the Basilica of Bom Jesus, the Church of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, or the forts of Aguada and Chapora. Sample local dishes such as fish curry, vindaloo, and bebinca (a traditional Goan dessert), either by dining out or hiring a local chef to cook at your villa.
5. Enjoy Goa’s Nightlife and Markets
No vacation to Goa is complete without experiencing its vibrant nightlife. Many villas in Goa are located close to popular nightclubs, beach shacks, and live music venues. From the famous Tito’s and Mambo’s in Baga to quieter, upscale lounges along the coast, there’s a nightlife scene for everyone. For those looking to shop, Goa’s flea markets are a must-visit. The Anjuna Flea Market and the Mapusa Market offer a unique shopping experience with local handicrafts, clothing, jewelry, and souvenirs. These spots also provide a chance to interact with locals and understand the unique Goan lifestyle.
6. Relax and Unwind in Privacy
One of the best parts of staying in a villa is the privacy it provides. Unlike hotels, where common areas are shared, villas allow you to relax and unwind in your own space. Spend a day lounging by your private pool, reading a book, or practicing yoga on the villa’s terrace. Many villas also have staff to take care of housekeeping, cooking, and other needs, so you can focus solely on enjoying your vacation. Use this private time to truly relax, away from the busier parts of Goa.
7. Organize a Small Celebration or Gathering
Villas in Goa are perfect for hosting small gatherings, whether it’s a family reunion, birthday celebration, or friends’ getaway. The spacious settings allow you to entertain your guests in style, with options to arrange a poolside barbecue, an intimate dinner under the stars, or even a bonfire on the beach. Inform the villa staff about your plans, and they can often assist with organizing food, decorations, and more, making the event memorable without the need for outside venues.
8. Explore Goa Beyond the Beaches
While Goa’s beaches are its main attraction, don’t miss out on other experiences. Visit spice plantations, enjoy river cruises along the Mandovi River, or go bird-watching at Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary. For nature lovers, the Dudhsagar Waterfalls provide a breathtaking view and a refreshing day trip. Exploring these spots will help you see Goa’s diverse ecosystem and landscapes beyond the coastline.
Conclusion
A villa vacation in Goa offers the ideal blend of comfort, luxury, and cultural immersion. By choosing the right location, exploring local attractions, and making the most of villa amenities, you can enjoy a unique and memorable holiday. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or time with loved ones, Goa’s villas provide an excellent base for creating unforgettable experiences. Make sure to plan your days with a balance of relaxation and exploration, so you return home with memories that last a lifetime.
